The ScoutCast – Episode 211 – Beleaguered

Save

Would definitely try and play McAuley, perhaps even before Pogba, although not ideal.

Maybe over Jones?

Otherwise you can certainly save FT, unless Pogba > Coutinho?, Nah, just save and use 2 x FTs to invest that 2.2 ITB....

mcauley before jones for thus week

Save this week

I would hold personally

Nice team

Wouldn't do those transfers honestly
If you take out Anichebe for Lukaku you are effectively moving to a 3-4-3 . Are you ok with that?

Since you have two benched defenders who have zero points potential , I'm guessing that applies to your midfield as well, with a 3-4-3 you will have to rotate phillips and Stanislas.
And Benteke isn't in great form and you won't know what to do with him if he blanks.
All sorts of issues are gonna heat up if you pull this I think.
Not too sure but this is my hypothesis.

Can't have them all, I would avoid Stanislas if your playing 3-4-3 as his next two games were the main attraction.
Instead I would do hazard to bench fodder and get a strong front three without Benteke and Aguero?

Save

Yours is good

Cheers CM lack of pool and Chelsea attack is going to hurt me. I know it

Nothing wrong with that fella!

I like this, I'd change Lovren though. Can you afford Baines?

Liverpools fixtures are a bit tough in the short run, can't see us keeping many clean sheets. Everton have smashing fixtures.

Yes plan is next week to do

Kun + Lovren >> Kane/Lukaku + Walker/Rose

If Kun blanks again

Cheers for replies lads. Feel a bit better 🙂

All good...

gtg although prefer alonso than luiz

Definitely solid for this week.

Depending on how much you have ITB, I've sold Pickford for Jaku to get an extra 0.2 which i desperately needed.
Obviously low priority though, if you have an FT

That's a nice Kubra team

Gtg good luck

Very good mate. Can I ask your plan with aguero? Tempted with all the Costa, Kane, lukaku love on here?

Meh. Not really. But reading between the lines, he has trained so should be ok

Doesnt mean that Whinger will start him though!

Trained since Tuesday, should be ok for Sunday

Not much
Wenger with his usual
Back In training but of course nobody knows what wenger wants to do. Common consensus is he should start Vs teams who defend deep such as Burnley.

Trained since Tuesday. Current form and the fact Walcott still out he will play imo. Also the fact it's against s more physical team should work in his favour for starting

Thanks all

Certainly good as long as injuries, suspensions etc don't get in the way.

Good option but buyer beware, bit of a Walcott

He is on everybody s watchlist.
A big haul next week and you will hear a lot drafting him in.
And rightly so.
Very frustrating to own him so better to have a bit of caution. This new formation is the only reason he is playing much better IMO, he is almost a second striker in this. Koeman s decision Vs palace now will tell a lot of things.

Not yet but he's on my watchlist.

G2G
I'd do - Haz c, Giroud vc

Looks nice, good chance to save a FT imo

Probably C

I would hold still this week.

I'd be tempted by that move, but you may want Stirling back straight away...

id do it now, sterling is useless

Nice looking team, depending on budget you could swap Hazard out for Antonio to get Lukaku and still have 5 good choice mids

Looks fantastic for this week

Best team I've seen in a while

The team looks great thia week. The 2 FTs will be really useful next week. I would save and use them next week.

I think Eriksen is the complete package.

Eriksen, but monitor if he goes 3 games without returns...

Eriksen I had took out but think need back in

I got Alli in 2 weeks ago and although he scored the brace against Chelsea I would rather have eriksen. Involved in everything

I picked Alli few weeks back and I am already regretting for not choosing Eriksen.

Alli. I thought so 6 weeks ago and I think so now.

I wouldn't double up on WBA defence, they don't really keep clean sheets. Brunt is enough.

Defoe out maybe, but on the other hand WBA has been leaking so hold on.

Can you downgrade Smith or Evans and upgrade Antonio to Eriksen or Coutinho?

A, and definitely not D

Probably going to hold still this week. But I'm 99 % sure Antonio won't deliver.

Probably. Until Bailey is back

I'd say yes now when Bailly is in AFCON. After that no.

For the moment he is.

See above, I have Evans and Smith. Probably going to field Smith as last time Evans started with a minor injury he was subbed off after 20 mins or so. Plus I'm afraid Defoe will get that one penalty.

I did this for a hit, believe it or not.

Pickford to Jaku is just good sense. Gain 0.2 and they'll be similar value soon.

Not sure about Costa though, truth is no one knows.

Save-Team set up right.

Giroud or Ozil to Costa or Hazard for me. Triple Arsenal and no Chelsea or Liverpool attackers is risky.

Any news on today's pressers, Ozil?

Save for sure ÖZIL, really nice team

The only problem is No Chelsea attack, just like me 😀

Yeah agreed tricky but bench Gibson good team

B

What was the s*** you pulled with TM yesterday?

Yeah gtg

Good team but you're sailing close to the wind with that defence.

With that strong strike force and a relatively low team value you need to have a bench fodder in midfield now like Hojberg, carrick or de roon.
Use that money to help your defense , it could use a Brunt or Rose.

B

C personally if hes nailed, i think he is as well (goal threat as well)

Thanks both. Decision time.

Probably B now, C if nailed as you say.

Chambers

Chambers

How much money in the bank?

Holebas. He's nearing 10 yellows and a 2 match suspension.

Looking good. Captain Hazard or Sanchez?
